The British Psychological Society Standards and Guidelines
The British Psychological Society provides the standards and guidelines on a range of topics including:
- Code of Ethics and Conduct.
- Supplementary Guidance on the use of Social Media.
- BPS Code of Human Research Ethics.
The Code of Ethics and Conduct provides a useful starting point for ethical guidance for delivering individual-level behaviour change interventions. The code is centred around four principles, each addressed by a statement of key values and a set of standards.
This resource will help you learn about what ethical considerations you may need to make when supporting someone around individual-level behaviour change. You may find that these ethical considerations are similar to your own professional or organisational codes of practice. Have a compare to see.
